Even OpenAI's own detection service can't tell AI-generated work apart — the company quietly took it down over accuracy concerns
OpenAI, the creator of viral chatbot ChatGPT, has quietly scuppered a tool that detects AI-generated text, citing accuracy concerns.
"As of July 20, 2023, the AI classifier is no longer available due to its low rate of accuracy," OpenAI wrote as a four-line update to a "We are working to incorporate feedback and are currently researching more effective provenance techniques for text," the update said. Back when OpenAI launched the AI detection tool — aimed to help educators detect academic cheating — it had acknowledged that"identifying AI-written text has been an important point of discussion among educators," but AI detection tools have limitations and should not be the primary basis of decision-making.
Rebecca Tan, a lecturer at the National University of Singapore, told Insider that educators are adapting to a reality where generative AI is widely available."Many of the reasons why students might use AI tools —like stress and wanting a shortcut, not seeing the value of their education — are not issues that I can solve on my own as an individual educator.
